Well you said over that distance interference would be a problem, my point is that it's rarely a problem over such small distances. If you can't get a full signal over 100m with a cantenna setup you've done something wrong.

One of the benefits of cantennas as well is it's trivial to adjust the polarisation of the signal (you literally just have to rotate the cantenna) so even if you are experiencing interference a quick rotate and you'll likely eliminate it.
